Well I know for a fact that Freese did all the recordings on his Daughtry's first album, and was a Paiste artist at the time. Oh and I got the info from Paiste.com. If you go to there artists section and look him up, you'll see that he did the Chris Daughtry album.

The only place I managed to find crediting Josh Freese is wikipedia. I actually couldn't find it on the Paiste website anywhere, not sure how you did. Even the daughtry website doesn't make mention of him. What I do know is that the actual drummer for the band is Joey Barnes, someone that no one seems to know about at all. Actually, using wikipedia, none of the band members were used to record the album. I hope that info at least came from the CD jacket (which I don't have to check against, so I couldn't say)

Yea, it says right in the album musicians section that he played. I'm not quite sure if you could find exactly what cymbals he used during the recording, especially now that I analyzed his Paiste profile more. I think he may have switched to Sabian after playing with Sting.

It says he has been with Paiste since 2003 yeah? That album was recorded last year so he would ahve been using Paiste, BUT, since it was a studio production, most likely it wasn't his personal kit, but instead a studio kit. For all we know he was playing a yamaha studio custom with Meinl cymbals.

This is the thing when the record company has full control, it makes it hard for us guys. Hell, even his band are just hired musos.
